need advice on what to use for site

i'm attempting to start up a site for my community that will have a plethera of different things on it for the surrounding area. i want to have area's where users can submit things like weddings, events, businesses, etc. etc. that will automatically put the info on the site w/o me having to manually input it. the site will be very similar to somd.com. if anyone could help me out w/ either some advice or some scripts like this that would be awesome...thanks!!

i know how to make forms...im just not very savvy with MySQL and PHP...like i can make my way around code pretty well...i just can't write it from scratch...so basically i guess the only script i need is one that will put the info from forms into a database and then a script that will call the data from the database...and as simple as that sounds i just don't know how to do it...
